Has anyone noticed an increase, relative to a few years ago, in common DS650 parts being on backorder?

 

Even new stuff is on back order.

 

Hopefully that means that the DS is growing in popularity and not that the manufactures of these parts are just slacking. My guess is a little of both.

 

my gues would be a bit of both as well, but bomb isn't the only people with parts on back order, durablue is just as slow, i ordered a axle for my brothers DS about a month and a half ago, they said it'd b about two weeks so he said he didn't care since he'd be too busy to ride n e ways, well i got an email, and guess wat? "oh its on backorder til the 27th now", if it goes on back order again hes gunna snap

 

Took me two weeks to get an oil sending unit.

 

Took me a good 2-3 months for a replacement steering stem.
